    Once its not beside him, my lad is fine with them.... though 10 weeks is very young. My advice......

    Put the youngest child in the kennel or the wife and make room for the dog:D

    it will be bad from now until nov 1st, i always bring them in halloween as thats the worst, any other night they dont mind it, chance leaving them out and if its very loud bring the pup in

    you said the pup is in with another springer older and steady to shot? if the other dog dosent mind the bangers chances are it will be good for the pup to be out with him but keep an eye on his reaction if you can, observe him in the kennel from a distance while the bangers are going off, any signs of shyness bring him in to the house.
